creating a pseudo 3d wireframe globe

The straight lines can be added with the paintbrush. For a straight line first Click, then Shift-Ctrl Click.

For the circle, create a selection and stroke the selection. Better still, create a path and stroke the path as this gives better results.

For the ellipse you can scale the circle selection (or path) to give an ellipse and stroke that. Or create a new selection (or path) from scratch.

Put each element (circle, ellipse, line) on its own layer. Makes things much easier if editing is needed.

For that type of image vector graphics is better (Inkscape).

thanks, I will give this a try. I do have inkscape installed but i'm less familiar with using inkscape than with gimp.
